Home Drive Favourites Vanished

About a week ago i moved my home folder to an external drive.

Today on my favourites bar on the left hand side of finder all the options are missing?

Music, Video, Photo etc ..

The disk shows up and the content can be read etc but not via favourites.

Anybody help?

 

Yeah?

How does one do that?

EDIT: Its okay I've found it in finder preferences.

God knows why they disappeared? - Maybe because the drive seems to unmount every night? :S

 

i could i would just need to buy the cable .. would be interested though to know why the thing keeps doing this ..

 

USB

I could link to them - but wanted them to appear in my favourites bar on the left properly with the icons .. hence i thought it was easiet just to move entire home folder.

Yes i have a backup admin account on the SSD just in case.

 

Dragged it to the USB drive. Let it copy.

User prefs, advanced, HF directory, changed it clicked lock etc ..

 

That was the guide i used ..

Okay so how do i go about moving it back .. whilst leaving my iTunes, iPhoto librarys all on the external

 

And then how do i link my favourties to point to the new locations?

 

Sorry i still dont get how to link that favourites bar to the external.

Ill move the Home folder back, no probs. But the contents of the music, photos,videos and downloads folder need to remain elsewhere.

SO i want those 4 links on the left hand side of the finder to point to there.

I also want to be able to download stuff and it automatically knows it has to download to the external ..

 

Okay I've made alias's in the fav bar.

Ive pointed safard, chrome and firefox to download to the external.
Ive pointed iphoto to find the library on the external.
Ive told iTunes to point to the external.

Yet iTunes is still blank?!

 

Have now and that worked

Thanks!

 

Well it worked but it also created new library's in my home folder on the SSD again?
